Rosen-LightSail provides students an authentic reading experience while also collecting data through embedded Cloze (fi ll-in-the-blank) assessments.

These assessments are processed through a special engine created in partnership with MetaMetrics®. As students read, a word is covered up. Students select the word they think best fi ts in the blank from a list of four options, receive immediate feedback, and then continue reading. Cloze assessments appear regularly throughout the texts in all English titles except plays, poetry, and graphic novels.

Cloze assessments allow Rosen-LightSail to monitor a student’s Lexile® measure, helping identify where that student is on the spectrum of reading comprehension. The more time a student spends reading and answering Cloze assessments, the more frequently Rosen-LightSail adjusts Lexile® levels to reflect a students level of comprehension.

In addition to Cloze assessments, multiple choice and short answer response assessments provide teachers with additional insight into students’ reading comprehension abilities. Both assessments are embedded at logical points throughout the texts, and are aligned to specifi c standards.

Multiple choice assessments are graded automatically, and teachers can view student progress categorized by standards on the Reports page.

Short answer response questions are graded by teachersusing blind grading. Rosen-LightSail provides teachers with exemplar-based rubrics and rationales in order to facilitate grading, and to provide students with quality, actionable feedback.
